It's been a year since the final episode of Star Trek: Enterprise
aired and at that time I asked how you would cope. This month, I was going
to ask how that year went but, ironically perhaps, the death of the franchise
wasn't as permanent as I thought. :-)

According to a startrek.com
news item dated 21 Apr 2006, J.J. Abrams will produce and direct an as-yet
unnamed "Star Trek XI" for release in 2008.

"The proposed story will focus on the early days of James T. Kirk and Spock,
including their first meeting at Starfleet Academy and their first mission
in space."

The writers have suggested there will be a "reimagining" of the
look of the series. In the Star Wars prequels, the universe was shiney,
happy, and full of chrome. In Battlestar Galactica's "reboot", things got
bleak, grim, and gritty.

Which way should Star Trek XI go?

Shiney! Happy!

interesting feature film.

Although Mothers' Day has come and gone, we can't forget those infamous
Moms of the Trek universe.
